    Just a little covering today. I fought a nasty migraine headache most of the day. Probably because of the Monokote Trim Solvent I was using to clean up the covering edges on the Pitts. Ugh...those nasty "sick to your stomach" headaches "SUCK". LOL. Better now though. I didn't realize this in...

    In fact, we are! Not to mention 2 degrees on the thermometer. Have not seen above 11-15 for weeks. Except only when a new front comes in to dump more freaking snow. Then the Temps plummet once more. Definitely a deep freezer we're in right now. Guess it's the price we're paying for all those...

    Call it devoted, call it obsessed... call it "just want the dang thing done". I just had to see what it would look like with a little more detail added to the covering. Hence, 4 more photos. Hey, this is really getting exciting. I just gotta see this thing totally done. LOL I added my own...

    Thanks everyone. Not great yet, but it is getting there. Still a LOT of covering yet to do. Finishing out the trim is what is going to be really time consuming. Oh well, it's winter right? Ugh. LOL.... So cold here in Idaho. I want spring to get here.

    Thanks...but trust and believe, I am not planning on getting the hang of it. LOL. I like to cover, but the belly of this one has really had me almost whooped. I was thinking I may have to recut the red stripes. I was looking at the full scale and noticed my stripes seem a little "fatter" at the...

    A little more covering done the last couple of days. I have to say, the bottom of the Pitts is by far one of the most DIFFICULT I have ever covered. Normal challenge is either a rounded fuse that tapers, which to me is not bad. Or a squared fuse that is a breeze to cover. Heck, even the big Yak...

    I don't dare sleep. I will have nightmares about this plane. LOL. I will sleep when it's done. I think the purple, orange and white in the sky will look really nice. I think it's a good combination.

    With weather like that, I'm thinkin' Santa should have snuck out to his favorite flyin' field and blasted his lil 'ole sleigh around for a few. Just sayin'! :laughing:

    With my kids doing their thing with their other family members today, I was blessed with a little time to do a little more covering on the Pitts. I am really taking my time with the Pitts as I want to make sure I get it right....the "FIRST" time. LOL. Here are a few more photos of the stabs...

    Well here is the deal with total scale with this plane. It already is an overweight tank for a 50cc plane as it is. If I were to cover it with solartex or cloth then paint it, It probably would not be able to fly. LOL..... I really am not building this strictly for aerobatics. Mostly just to do...
